O nos, whats a bureaucrat to do!

More money solves nothing other then making things less efficient. There is no proof that homeland security even works. A recent article stated that TSA missed over 60% of fake bomb tests last year. And those were FAKES! TSA can't even find real bomb parts as well. I don't normally agree with Bush, but cutting government spending on crap that doesn't work gets a :thumbsup: from me.

Look at our "war on drugs" as an example and you can see that throwing more money on the fire has an opposite effect. Whats to say homeland security is any different? If you feel NY will not be safe with the cuts then move elsewhere less likely to be attacked. Depending on government and all its inefficiencies for protection is like trying to heat your home in the winter with all the windows fully opened.
